http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=2457 Issue 2457: Do TTFonts prevent image startup We should check if this is a problem for Pharo too. See the thread "Please, help me. My squeak image not started" on squeak-dev: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2010-May/150846.html

There are two ways how to work with TT Fonts. One way is to use TTFontDescription, which fully reads font into object memory, so you can walk with it anywhere and it will work. Another way is to use TTFileDescription. This one is tricky, because it only caching glyphs data, while reads missing glyphs from files on demand. So, i think that was the cause of problem.

Note, TTFileDescription, which caused the issues discussed, seemed to have been removed from Pharo when I checked Friday. Cheers, Henry Den 22. mai 2010 kl. 20.59 skrev Igor Stasenko <siguctua@gmail.com>:
